General Name Discussion

I have been doing notebooks for my top names every two months or so. Or whenever they change a lot. And I stumbled across my list from [name_u]January[/name_u] 3rd, 2014. And I can see a huge difference.

[name_f]Audrey[/name_f] [name_u]Jean[/name_u]
[name_f]Judith[/name_f] [name_f]Christine[/name_f]

My questions are…

  1. Which list do you prefer over all? 2014 or 2015?
  2. What are some names you like from both of my lists?

I prefer your 2015 boys better than the 2014 list, but I have to say I like your 2014 girls list the most.

For your girls lists I prefer [name_f]Alice[/name_f] [name_f]Lorraine[/name_f] over [name_f]Lorraine[/name_f] [name_f]Alice[/name_f], and I love [name_f]Elisabeth[/name_f] [name_u]Story[/name_u] and [name_f]Sonnet[/name_f], though I’m not to keen on [name_f]Marigold[/name_f]. I do however like [name_f]Audrey[/name_f] [name_u]Jean[/name_u] from your 2015 list.

For boys I love [name_m]Maverick[/name_m] and [name_m]Gideon[/name_m], though I’m not too keen on the middle names, but I really love [name_u]Jameson[/name_u] [name_u]Laurie[/name_u], it’s really awesome! From your old list I do like [name_m]Atticus[/name_m] and [name_m]Holden[/name_m], but again don’t really like the middle names.

Overall though I think this was a very good idea and may do this myself this year, just so I can look back and see what I used to like!

I have one dated back to [name_f]July[/name_f] of 2013. My favorite girls name was [name_f]Juliette[/name_f]. But [name_m]David[/name_m] has stayed the same since February of 2013
